As first reported by Chris Cotillo earlier today the Braves selected the contract of right hander Jake Brigham from Gwinnett. Mark Bowman confirms the call up and says that the Braves have not as yet made a corresponding roster move.
Jake Brigham will be promoted from Gwinnett. Corresponding move will depend on Williams Perez‘s foot and the status of today’s game

In fact there’s no need to actually make a roster move today. Although there are 48 names on the 40 man roster, three are on the restricted list – Arodys Vizcaino, Dian Toscano and Andrew McKirahan – and six others are on the 60 day DL- Bronson Arroyo, Mike Minor, Josh Outman, Shae Simmons, Daniel Winkler and Chris Withrow.
